On Saturday, January 28th, The Church of St. John-Visitation in the Bronx, NY, held a bilingual Memorial Mass to celebrate the life and legacy of the Holy Father Pope Benedict XVI.

Prior to the Mass, the Church held its monthly Family Day, a day each month in which parents and children come together to learn about and rejoice in the traditions of the Church.

This month’s Family Day featured a presentation on Pope Benedict XVI, remembering him as a great teacher and writer of the Catholic Church. 

A percentage of all sales benefitted the Church of St. Clare of Assisi - St. Francis Xavier Parish.
